Edward Bess Back to Basics and Berry Chic Palettes (Preview)

Edward Bess has released his first two palettes this holiday season ($75 each). Each palette comes in a black mirrored rectangular compact containing:

one lip/cheek color (similar to Compact Rouges)

one cream highlighter

four eyeshadows

two glosses

a double-ended brush (one side for creams other for shadows)

Back to Basics is the neutral-nudes option and Berry Chic is a palette which has cool-toned pink plum shades. The palettes are currently available at counter in-store at Bergdorf Goodman and also on EdwardBess.com. Here is the packaging:

Next up will be details, descriptions, reviews and swatches of each palette individually. Both were purchased sight-unseen. I've only been testing for a few days but initial thoughts are thumbs-up. All the cream items in this palette have the beautiful EB fig scent (I can't smell anything from the shadows). I'll be putting up my reviews as fast as I can. For more details you can call the Bergdorf Goodman Edward Bess counter (212) 872-8826.
